You're like me
When I was a child.
You're beautiful and you know
Everything you have!
[Chorus:]
Sing, little girl
For the day lasts only for a few hours
And, when the evening comes, you can discover
That the sun has left and you remain...
Sing, little girl
And don't lock yourself away to weep or think
That absolutely everything fades, even love...
And in the end, you're the only one left!
Don't do as I have done!
Don't do as I have done!
A day is worth a year
And life is worth an instant:
You wake up one good morning
And you find out that you're already a woman.
[Chorus:]
Sing, little girl
For the day lasts only for a few hours
And, when the evening comes, you can discover
That the sun has left and you remain...
Sing, little girl
And don't lock yourself away to weep or think
That absolutely everything fades, even love...
And in the end, you're the only one left!
Don't do as I have done!
Don't do as I have done!
Don't do as I have done...!
